Remember when Sgt. Pearson talked about how girls are worth more than a 25cent AirHead? That was an awesome metaphor! Don't let yourself be used by a guy and don't do things you don't really want to do just because you like him. When she said, "Tell him to give you a call when we're grown up and you're a man", I nearly lost it. She is sooo right!!! We put a lot of energy into guys when we're young even though we should put time and effort into ourselves.

P.S. A random fact for you: AirHeads are made in Northern Kentucky (just 17 miles away from Norwood) at a company called Van Melle. If you want to take a virtual tour of how they are made, then click here AirHead Factory.
It was funny when SGT. Pearson was talking about! But yes I am worth much more than an airhead!
ReplyDeleteThis was my favorite part!:)
ReplyDeleteI loved the bullying metaphor she used, "I'm going to go all Willow Smith. She don't let no one mess with her. She whips her hair back and forth!" (:
ReplyDeleteJaskaren, thanks for listening. Alyssa that was the best advice my grandmother ever gave me and Katie, people are going to talk about you all of your life, so it is so important to learn self confidence and not internalizie any of it. It all gets easier with time!
